The
only part of the Franciscan Convent that remains
today is the church. Officially founded on April
26th, 1590, the convent is basically Baroque in
style. The interior has two naves separated by a
series of ribbed arches. The central nave holds
three altar pieces; the right nave has a smaller
one, again in the Baroque style but with indigenous
touches; and in the small chapel to the left, one
of stone and masonry. Today, the San Francisco Convent
has been converted to the Museum of Sacred Art.
